Toucheng Leisure Farm Summer Camp 2015
Learn how to make friends with
all things of the earth at the farmer’s land.

At the little farmer’s natural - earth
kitchen classroom, teaching is equated with exploration, farming, food and
life’s education, in an active, rich and diverse but innovative method.
Participants stay at the Farm for five days and 4 nights to fully utilize the
Farm’s ecology and natural resources. The program is designed to suit the needs
of school children living in the metropolitan area to learn all from what is
expected and demanded of a Summer Camp.
Originally, human skills and
knowledge are fruits of experiences derived from living outdoors in nature.
Nature has been the field of human learning and man’s learning partner.
Toucheng Leisure Farm has a wealth of outdoor teaching resources such as
low-altitude teaching facilities; organic vegetable gardens; rice paddies and
streams. Camping activities also includes planting or collecting fruits and
vegetables; Environmental Educational; hands–on-experiences; parent and
child experimental activities; all done in a joyful and relaxing learning
environment in a natural setting and ultimately making friends with everything
in nature.
Modern students at the school
campuses have images, texts, pictures for learning seen or not seen, cold and
odorless. Learning is a second-hand experience of other people, is only a
virtual knowledge. In addition, man’s daily life is decided by the
advertisement or marketing tools offered to be consumed, especially food. Man’s
distance with nature is becoming farther. He no longer feels the four season’s
flow, or the rhythm of nature’s energy. We want all participants of the Summer
Camp to wander along the mountain paths, walk through the creeks, just like
Grandmother Cho (the founder of Toucheng Leisure Farm) who is living amidst
nature, who is a friend of the farmland, who takes care of the organic garden,
careful that the farmer’s toil in the garden is not wasted but fully rewarded
and ultimately result in a rich feedback, that is: earth’s ecological
nature is back on track, producing vibrant crops, healthy and nutritious.
We welcome all students
to Toucheng Leisure Farm for our Summer Camp 2015 and act as a farmer at
nature’s’ farm. Let us work together and harvest earth’s precious gifts.
